Pablo Abad

Editorial design is probably the specialty with the most graphic design content. Layout and compose a publication oblige you to be attentive to everything: to photography, to typography, to color, to rhythm. It is an exciting art full of complex concepts that Pablo Abad makes easy.

Surely you are a collector and keep on your computer or blog countless images, photos and illustrations that you like ... references, weird things that only you understand. How would you like to use all this to make a magazine as a professional does? It is the perfect excuse to get into the publishing world and have a first job in your portfolio. With Pablo, you will see how an editorial work is planned from the beginning to the end, from conceptualization to final art.

Description

Convert your passion into a professionally edited magazine

At the beginning, Pablo will explain to you what his work consists of and will take you by the hand towards the publishing world. It will explain the different agents involved in the preparation of a magazine and what is the role of each one of them. It will help you to conceptualize the content of a magazine based on a real project, your personal blog hidden that will become a magazine.

To prepare the magazine will tell you how to give structure to the contents. It will explain how to work with a "planillo" and you will see how the material is organized before thinking about the format. Once you have decided on the format you will see how to choose a typeface according to the project. Do not know much about how to work with reticles? Do not worry, you will see how to work with them in an easy and simple way, you will know the pros and cons of the different grid formats and you will decide on a template to work with.

Once the template has been decided, it is only necessary to design both the interior pages and the cover page. You will see how to review everything, make the necessary adjustments and finally make the final art of your magazine.
